Hi Russell:
It works for me. I'm using HyperCanvas 1.02, it seems to be working
perfectly, though I haven't exactly stress-tested it.
jack_fst HyperCanvas.dll

control and functionality in the likes of Steinberg, Cakewalk, etc.
I'm wondering if it could be run under FST or VST_server and used in
<place favorite Open Source OS distro here> Linux in conjunction with
Muse or Rosegarden or other sequencer apps?
Anyone by remote chance messed with this? I will be doing some
experimenting but I have not even got VST server to work properly
yet.

hi -
i was wondering if this had been resolved? i'm currently getting almost
exactly the same problem that Russell Hanaghan was having with jack_fst
and wine - it has all compiled and installed okay (wine 20040505,
fst-1.6, jack_fst-1.2) on my ccrma fedora core 2 box, but when i call it
this is what i get:
[mrmachine@localhost mrmachine]$ jack_fst
/home/mrmachine/c/Program\ Files/vst/Crystal.dll
Reserving memory: base=0xbff0b500, size=1000000, end=0xbffff740
err:font:OpenFontFile FT_New_Face rets 81
Building font metrics. This may take some time...
fst signal handler 11, thread = 0xb6d74bb0
fst signal handler 11 (TEB=0xb6d75000)
Killed
i can run it no worries as root (and what a joy it is too! but not really practical), but
as normal user i get the above message every time :(
btw - i'm starting jack as normal user ...
any help on this one? over at ccrma lists, a couple of people have gotten it working on
this version of wine, but not on fedora core 2 .. i'm not sure how many have tried
...

The fact that you can get it to run as root but not as mortal user tells
us something I guess. When I was going thru my VST nightmares, I could
not get it to run at all...and I was about to jump from the proverbial
cliff ! Then Dave Phillips took pity on my feeble, whimpering self...a
mere shell of a former true man of persistance... :)
I don;t know what your specific problem is...but, here's what we do know;
-Any vst-in-linux app is heavily reliant on the version of Wine. But we
know for a fact that 20040505 is a working version. It works on my MDK
box, and Mark has it working, as do several others here.
-Crystal is one of the definate .dll's that does work of the vst's. So
does HyperCanvas 1.02. (Not sure if thats what you ultimatley want
running here?)
- that on your box, something available as a service or thread to root
allowing it to run is not available to user...
What do you mean when you say "btw - i'm starting jack as normal user
..." ? Is this when you try to run fst as user too?
Did you do a Winblows install of the vst application? If so, did you do
it as root and not user? I know a full Win install is not needed with
for Crystal...but is for Hypercanvas I think.
What kernel are you using now?
